EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Lucia 1960," captures the essence of tradition and the spirit of the 1960s. The image features a Saint Lucia procession in progress, with a young woman wearing a traditional white gown and carrying a candle in each hand, accompanied by a young girl holding a tray of lit candles. The scene takes place in a dimly lit room, with the warm glow of the candles illuminating the faces of the participants and casting intriguing shadows on the walls. The photograph transports us back in time to an era when traditions held a strong place in society, and the world was undergoing significant changes. The 1960s were a decade of transformation, marked by social upheaval, political unrest, and cultural shifts. Amidst this backdrop, the continuity of traditions like the Saint Lucia procession served as a source of comfort and stability for many communities. The photograph also showcases the beauty and simplicity of the Saint Lucia tradition. Saint Lucia, the patron saint of the island of Saint Lucia in the Caribbean, is celebrated on December 13th each year. The tradition of the Saint Lucia procession involves a young woman, dressed in white and wearing a crown of candles, carrying a tray of candles and serving a traditional drink called "punch" to her family and guests. This tradition is believed to bring good luck and prosperity to the household. The photograph "Lucia 1960" is a poignant reminder of the power of tradition to connect us to our past and provide a sense of continuity amidst change. It is a beautiful and evocative image that invites us to reflect on the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire and influence us today.
